The Gramicci Original G Pant - Designed to Move, Made to Last
Some pieces earn their reputation the right way. The Gramicci Original G Pant is one of them. Born in the early eighties from the hands of climber Mike Graham and his friends in California’s Yosemite Valley, these were trousers built out of necessity. The crew, known as the Stonemasters, wanted gear that could move like they did. Heavy canvas and surplus kit just weren’t cutting it on the wall, so Graham designed something new: a pant with a diamond gusset for full leg movement and an integrated belt that could be adjusted with one hand while climbing.
That bit of problem-solving changed outdoor apparel for good. Gramicci quickly became a go-to for climbers, skaters, and anyone who valued movement and durability. Decades later, the Original G Pants still carry that same energy. They’re made from tough 100% organic cotton twill, relaxed through the hips with a clean taper, and finished with that unmistakable webbing belt. You get all the freedom of the original design, but in a fit that works just as well on the street as it does on the rock.
What’s kept Gramicci relevant all these years is that same approach to function and freedom. The brand has grown far beyond its climbing roots, but every piece still feels purpose-built. We stock a full selection of Gramicci gear that carries that same DNA: lightweight technical jackets built for unpredictable weather, warm fleeces and knitwear for layering, easy everyday T-shirts, and durable bags that nod to the brand’s outdoor heritage. Whether you’re after a full outfit or just a single piece that’ll outlast trends, Gramicci has you covered with gear that’s simple, functional, and built to move.
The Original G Pant remains the icon, but the range has grown to include the Loose Tapered, Straight Fit, and seasonal versions in corduroy, pigment-dyed cotton, and soft twills. Each one features movement first design, hard wearing construction, and an easy, everyday attitude that’s pure Gramicci.
Whether you’re heading outdoors, travelling light, or just want something comfortable and reliable, the G Pant sits in that perfect space between function and style. It’s a piece that’s been doing the job since 1982, and still does it better than most.
